DETENTION (2008)

Two hundred students and one teacher who vows to make a difference. What comes between them is revenge—point blank and fully loaded. Gloria Abraham (Golden Globe™ nominee Penelope Ann Miller, Carlito’s Way) is a newer teacher at Garner Washington High School in the inner city of Los Angeles. Not one to stand idly by and watch as her students grow more and more distanced and jaded, she’s determined to bring change to the school and motivate them to recognize their potential for learning. She’s just as fearless as they are— but with one big difference. Gloria’s still affected by the violence that her students accept as a way of life. This time, it’s the violent death of sixteen-year-old Dwayne Evert, a troubled boy shot down in cold blood by a gang member and local drug kingpin in a deal gone bad. The police already believe they know who the shooter is — Oscar Reyes (Lobo Sebastian, CSI: Miami), a suspect in six other killings, but no witness is willing to come forward.

Estimated despatch 5-10 days after ordering.
